My Animated .gif
My first efforts in developing my own animated .gif was coming up with a rocket surprise ending. The techniques applied throughput my gif included the tweening and organizing of images in to convey a clever, topical and comedic recap of a recent internet feud between two YouTubers. "iDubbbzTv" (deemed the "Content Cop" by YouTube's community) released a 30 minute video criticizing RiceGum's content and his poor excuse of a personality. One aspect of iDubbbzTv's video included a 3 minute music video parodying RiceGum's "diss tracks." The rocket in the gif was a representation of iDubbbzTv's music video and was meant to be a literal representation of iDubbbzTv's criticisms

| Titans Against Cancer Gif |
My school themed gif I chose was for Titans Against Cancer .
I decided on this school theme because I was a member of the club for the past two years. Finding their meeting time was the only information needed to help complete
My animated gif message was to inform audiences of the meeting times for the club and the club's mission statement: "Giving Hope to those who need it the most."
I believe that my intended audience was incoming freshmen. They will respond to my animation, because members of the club are portrayed as individuals who are caring and accepting according to the animation. Freshmen are generally,
I sent the gif to the president of the club and the response I received was (which was sent through a Remind text message): "Thank you for such a for the animation Josephhhh. I'll be sure to show all of our club members during next week's meeting."
What I would do differently with my next project would be to include more walking frames instead of tweening between the walking frames. The after image left by the tweening looks really awkward so next time I'll just have to do a couple more frames of for the walking animation.
